Personal History:
Troy wasn't born into a rich family by far. In fact at the time of his birth they were living in his dad's old station wagon. Yes, with the wood grain on the sides. Being a young child, however, none of this mattered to him. All that mattered at the time was that he had his parents, and food, and that he was healthy - which he was. At long last, his grandparents took an interest in the well-being of their newest grandson, and offered to let his family live with them until his dad could find a decent job. Which was fortunate, because his younger brother was born three years after his own birth, and then a year after his brother was born, his younger sister was also introduced to the family.
Being the oldest, there was a certain standard that his parents had held him up to. Such as getting home promptly after school to help to take care of his younger siblings, because his mom couldn't do it by herself and grandma refused to help. As they all grew older, however, babysitting became much easier. Especially since he would also get to watch the neighbour's kids, and get paid for his efforts.
At the age of sixteen, he had his first serious girlfriend, and he was completely head over heels for her. And it was because of her that he realised who he truly was early on in his life. Well, and with some help from a little girl he'd baby sit, to whom was obsessed with the fables by Aesop, and by this time? The dreams had began. She was so intrigued by Aesop that Troy ended up being able to recite the story The North Wind and the Sun by heart - and probably still can if you really want him to. But that relationship soon ended when the girl's old boyfriend tried to drown him.
One of his best friends while growing up was Caitlin. She meant the world to him, and no matter how many times he tried to make a move on her - she resisted. She always seemed afraid of him, much to his dismay and he hated it.
When her parents were getting a divorce, however, he was there to help her through that time. He would do anything for her, especially since they were the best of friends, really. Although his 'boys', as he liked to refer to them as, always pointed out that they were the two people at the school who actually were meant for one another.
But when high school ended, so did they. He moved all the way to New Jersey with his parents. His dad had received a much better job offer there, and so they took it. He's resented his father quite a bit since them. After all, he tore him away from Caitlin.
He ended up graduating with high honours, and his counselour was able to get him a scholarship to attend Medical school, since he had shown such an interest in it and had made such a big effort to achieve the credits in the classes he needed for this particular field of work.
Now, he’s currently in Chicago, Illinois where he's attending school to become a Pediatrician.
Personality:
Troy, in short, is pretty well put together. When he entered into the tenth grade, he at last knew what he wanted to do - work with children. True, babysitting is normally for girls to do when they're younger to gain some money, but he had done it all the time. Sure, it was mainly for his younger siblings, but sometimes it was the neighbour's kids!
Usually for most young men, they're more into seeing how many girls they can shack up with and get sex from, rather than finding 'the one'. But Troy is the complete opposite. He's a hopeless romantic, and he has yet to stop searching for that one girl. There was a time in which he had thought he found her, but the two had soon broke it off after their short-lived engagement. He was heartbroken, but managed to pull himself back to his feet, and focus upon his career instead of his love life, which was what he needed to do. Okay, and the girl's new boyfriend tried to drown him - much to his dislike.
Because of that, his willpower is strong, and he will not give up until his job is done. Having a family is his lifelong dream, but as long as he gets to help children and others in some way, shape, or form, he'll be content. For awhile, at least.
He is, however, confident as all hell. He knows he's good looking (in his opinion, at least), but he's not going to use it too much to his advantage. After all, that's just mean. But hey, if it can get him out of trouble or something, he'll sure as hell go for it. And he flirts way too much to be allowed legal, but then again, what guy doesn't? Okay, and he's incredibly sarcastic and at times downright snarky.
Physical Description:
Standing somewhat-tall at the height of five feet, eleven, he's always been on the short side for a male. In middle school he towered over the rest of his peers, though. They used to call him a beanstalk, and any other names you can possibly fathom to describe an abnormally tall person. But in high school, he seemed to almost fit right in. How? No idea, but he won't bitch about it.
He fits the typical 'tall, dark, and handsome' profile of a modern day young man. He has light chocolate brown hair and piercingly-blue eyes, and they have a tendency to change colours right along with his moods. Facial hair adorns his face appropriately, and though he sometimes shaves, he does believe he looks better when he doesn't shave. And the truth is, he does. Well, it makes him look older, at least. His hair is a natural dirty blonde, but as he's grown older it's darkened considerably.
Troy has a knack for ruining his clothes. Either he'll be walking along the sidewalk and some brat rides through a puddle at full speed and splashes dirty water upon him, or he'll spill his ice cream cone on his shirt. It usually happens, however, when he's particularly nervous, or when things are going so well that you're praying nothing goes wrong - and then it does.
Preferred Body Model: Zac Efron.

Example Narrative:
Honestly? Troy wouldn't have cared if she had come in sweatpants and a baggy tee shirt, with her hair in a bun and no make-up on her face. He would have been just as content to sit down on the couch with her, and watch the ball drop on the television. But he was determined to make tonight great. Though having her around kind of ensured that, now didn't it?
But he had the evening planned. Or rather, how they'd spend counting down until the new year, of course. He hoped she'd like it, but that didn't matter. As long as he was with her, everything would be perfect. No doubt about it.
After looking in the mirror for about the fiftieth time, he finally finished buttoning up his rich blue, white pinstriped polo shirt, and made sure his khaki pants were on the right way (hey, you could never be too careful). Putting on some extra deoderant, he finally left his parents place, and drove his way to Marlene's.
Troy inhaled deeply, and at last exited his car after he parked. He made his way up to the front door, and knocked gently, hoping she was ready. There was definitely no better person to start the new year with than Marlene. She made him want to be a better person, but without even trying. In short? She was wonderfully, and amazingly.. amazing!
